To find the rate of change of the line passing through the points (-3,3.6) and (5,2), we can use the formula:
rate of change = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, (x1, y1) = (-3, 3.6) and (x2, y2) = (5, 2). Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
rate of change = (2 - 3.6) / (5 - (-3))
rate of change = (-1.6) / 8
rate of change = -0.2
Therefore, the rate of change of the line passing through the points (-3,3.6) and (5,2) is -0.2.
rate of change = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, (x1, y1) = (-3, 3.6) and (x2, y2) = (5, 2). Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
rate of change = (2 - 3.6) / (5 - (-3))
rate of change = (-1.6) / 8
rate of change = -0.2
Therefore, the rate of change of the line passing through the points (-3,3.6) and (5,2) is -0.2.
